Standard Features

Induction Heating

The induction element stays cool.

The target object heats up rapidly for extremely efficient cooking.

Easy and quick to control.

It is highly reactive and exceedingly safe.

Automatic Cookware Recognition

A cooking zone will only heat up when a suitable magnetic metal pan is placed on it.

Proper cookware to be used on an induction surface needs to be able to support a magnetic field.

Booster Function

If activated, the selected zone or zones will operate on power setting 9 for ten minutes.

The different cook zone sizes allows the booster to be used for a variety of pan sizes and ensure reduced heat-up times.

Auto Heat-Up Function

Gives an initial thrust to the normal power output to bring the pan up to temperature rapidly.

The heat then reduces automatically to the chosen output level for continued cooking.

Rated 5 out of 5 Great product
Miele is a premium brand with a premium price. However my theory is you soon forget the price, but you are constantly reminded of quality. This Miele unit works wonderfully, and we are very pleased. We look forward to cooking on it for years to come.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Pabblo awesome induction
This was my first taste of induction. I'm glad I went with the quality of Miele. The burner configuration is excellent. The power that this thing has is unreal, yet you can heat evenly and at the level you need. the ceramic top is tough and well done with no metal trim to let grease and grim collect in. This unit beat out the Electrolux unit for me.

Rated 4 out of 5 Miele 30" Smoothtop Electric Cooktop KM5753
This KM5753 cooktop is is an amazing upgrade from our previous electric cooktop. The smooth surface heats only where the pot or pan is placed and brings food to a rapid desired temperature once you figure out the numbers. I was amazed that it could heat and cool off so fast. Less time on equals less money going to the electric bill! Miele appliances are not cheap but they are a prime example of you get what you pay for!
